MEASUREMENT AND REPETITION TIME
When creating or editing a configuration file, both measurement time and repetition
time can be set. The measurement time is the time over which the Sentinel DTS will
perform averaging of the signal to reduce noise and improve the temperature
resolution. The repetition time is the total time between consecutive temperature
sensing measurements and may include some idle time if the repetition time is
greater than the measurement time. The Sentinel DTS may be set to operate
continuously, by checking the appropriate tick box, or for a limited number of
repetitions, un-checking the tick box and entering the desired number of repetitions.
For more information on setting the above parameters within the configuration
editor or the Configuration Wizard, please refer to the User Guide.
